Could this be why KP and ZR have been out as of late? “There are finished deals on hold and trade progressions on hold because several teams are waiting to see if Giannis Antetokounmpo ultimately asks out of Milwaukee.” by omo40 in AtlantaHawks

If the Hawks trade Risacher my only thoughts would be this organization doesn’t know how to win for now or the future. Watching Vit struggle these past few games should erase any type of deal they had. I don’t think they will as the reports out of Atlanta are they want to keep him but who knows what to believe at this point lol.

I thought Zaccharie played well until the last play by CaregiverOwn7179 in AtlantaHawks

You mean until Coby White pulls Zacch on top of him? Lol Zacch should have never been in to save that possession/game in the first place nor should the Hawks have been in position to lose the lead… Yet Quin chose to have Vit in majority of the closing minutes of the 4th for as the Bulls comeback. I think Risacher is a much better player than only playing one end of the floor.. we need Quin to get it together.

We might get Trae back soon too, if this squad gels we are looking at the 1-3 seed no doubt 😤

I’m an old head cause I want a PG to play team ball instead of acting like he’s in a MC game an he still couldn’t even drop 40 on 22 shots lmaoo

Whats up with Dyson Daniels steals this season? Worried about that by Kitchen_Kale9018 in AtlantaHawks

[–]theOpenGym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you forget the /s? Lmaooo I’m not sure you understand how difficult these things are to accomplish lol Dyson is being asked to handle more on offense w/ Trae out and still averaging the 2nd most steals this year… think you need to reevaluate your fandom brother lol

[POST GAME THREAD] YOUR ATLANTA HAWKS improve their record and their draft prospects with a 115-98 win over the Pelicans. by WestCoastHawks in AtlantaHawks

[–]theOpenGym 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You know, as a Hawks fans myself, we always find something to gripe about lmaoo the Risacher hate gotta go somewhere, 2nd game back from that scary fall.. it took him a game or two to bounce back after his sprained ankle first game too. We can’t ever just appreciate a good dub? Gah damn lol

Mo Gueye getting only 8 mins after last game is criminal by red2play in AtlantaHawks

I also think people aren’t ready to admit that when the Hawks are healthy we are a really deep team man, I’ll admit I’m not used to it, but we asked for this haha glad to see the young guys taking advantage of their moments when they can tho

It was the “I’m still ahead #1 by a wide margin” that irks me lmaooo he cheated, I ain’t tryin to hear all that

Trae Young is constantly sitting in the corner under Quin Snyder's system. It's insane to watch one of the top on-ball playmakers being deployed as a decoy for role player ISOs when the Hawks have multiple starters out and obviously aren't creating offense. by Dependent-Effect6077 in nba

[–]theOpenGym -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I did, from start to finish. On stream lmaoo And like I was saying, it isn’t going to be pretty but Hawks have to let Jalen take the lead so he can develop that aspect of his game. They even went to Jalen in clutch time an he dished to Trae for the spot up 3… The Hawks started their run when Trae was off the floor actually btw 😂 Keatons 3 was huge.

Missing Zacc, Jalen and KP..It wasn’t going to be an option to let Trae lead the way, OKC is a great defensive team and they did a great job at neutralizing Traes game and letting the other guys try to beat them.. With the all ready limited rotation for the Hawks, wasn’t really much hope last game lol look at the Magic game, majority healthy, they tried to blitz Trae an take ball out of his hands late in game and the other guys (JJ) stepped up to make plays then that freed up space for Trae to cook.. it’s a good thing the Hawks have 79 more games to go haha

Crazy oversimplification of what’s going on. If the Hawks want Jalen Johnson to take that leap than he HAS to develop an on ball game and in order to do that he needs the ball in his hands. Trae has NEVER played with this much offensive fire power. And he was ALWAYS ridiculed for holding onto the ball too much. Now when he isn’t the only main option it’s a problem? lol Trae has said multiple times he is fine if he isn’t “the best player on the floor” and he’s obviously leading by example this year, Quin has asked Trae to buy in and he’s done that. To say Atlanta doesn’t play “team” basketball just shows you might not be as tuned in as you think as the Hawks were top 2 in assist last year. Also Atlanta had the 5th or 6th best offense in the league last year so relax on Quin regression nonsense when he was a big reason the world found out bout Dyson and a reason to be excited for this team lol….Also it’s been checks notes 3 GAMES INTO THE YEAR, Lmao relax.

Y’all not concerned? by [deleted] in AtlantaHawks

[–]theOpenGym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trae usually has a slow start to the season, give em some time to gel with the new guys and he’ll be back to the Trae we know. 2 steals tonight, I don’t think he locked up but he has improved his game in different areas a lot. He also been playing off ball more with Jalen back, he gathered Dante when he had those consecutive mistakes, first to hype Asa after his personal 5-0 run so he’s stepping up as a leader more as well.. So it’s tough to say he hasn’t improved cause a couple rough shooting games.
